Chapter 4
I walked in.
小荷作文网 www.zww.cn“May I please ask you for your name?” I asked politely.
小 荷 作文网 www.zww.cn“Sophie.” She reached out to shake my hand and I did.
I’ve planned to scream at her about how mean it was to make my mother leave but now it seemed that my planned had changed.
“Want a piece of cake, honey?” she asked nicely, pushing her brown hair back.
“Yes, please.” I said. I couldn’t believe that my stepmother was so nice. I decided not to ask her about my mum. She gave me the cake and sat on the sofa.
“Come here dear, sit here.” She said, patting the space beside her. I went over and sat here.
“May I ask, if my dad is anywhere around here?” I asked, I felt I have never talked so politely in my life.
“Oh I am so sorry, he is still at work.” She replied.
“No need to be.”
“So, what’s your favorite movie, I am taking you to the movies tomorrow.” Sophie insisted.
“You really don't need to……” I began
“No, we are going to have some fun tomorrow.” She urged.
“OK it’s ‘scream’.” I said unable to protest.
“I think you have a friend called Julia, right? The daughter of Mary.”
“Yes, how do you know?” I studied at this unusual stepmother. She seems to know a great deal about me.
“Oh, it’s David, he told me.”
I didn't really believe that, how can David talk about me. I mean, he cares nothing about me. But I guess there was no reason for Sophie to lie about a thing like that.
“Anyways,” continued Sophie. “ You may bring your friend with to the movie If you like.”
“Yeah, I sure will.”
Sophie’s eyes shone.
Sophie glanced at her watch and said “I think it’s time for you to go to . Would you like a cup of hot chocolate before going to bed?”
That was so kind of her! I thought. “Yes please.” I replied.
“Go up to your room first and I’ll bring it to you when it’s ready.” She told me.
“Ok.” I said quietly and walked to my room. I pushed the door open and saw a girl my age sitting in front of my desk, drawing.
“Who… Who are you?” I asked
